[NEWS] Baekhyun - 220622 Hanteo News: “[WhosPICK:VIEW] 'Genius Idol' Baekhyun Becomes the Global Superstar Selected by the World! The reason behind it”
Tumblr media
Group EXO’s member Baekyun is selected as the world’s No.1 global superstar.
From June 14th to June 20th, the global K-Pop fandom platform ‘Whosfan’ ran a poll with the topic, ‘[WhosPICK] 100th WhosPICK Celebration Special, Which idol got the most PICK from the global fandom?’
Based on the fans’ recommendation on Whosfan’s official social media account, the poll's nominees included idols who are loved by global fans. The nominees included ENHYPEN’s Sunoo, Stray Kids’ Lee Know, TREASURE’s So Junghwan, SHINee’s Taemin, BTS’s Jin, EXO’s Baekhyun, WONHO, BLACKPINK’s Lisa, IU, and MAMAMOO’s Wheein.
After fierce competition, EXO’s Baekhyun won a thrilling come-from-behind victory with 37.70% of the votes. In 2nd and 3rd were ENHYPEN’s Sunoo (28.73%) and BTS’s Jin (15.09%) respectively. To this, ‘WhosPICK:VIEW’ introduces why Baekhyun, the self-proclaimed ‘genius idol,’ can’t help but be loved by the global fandom.
Tumblr media
▶ A global ‘superstar’ in the making since elementary school
Baekhyun is the representative ‘genius idol.’ As is his name, ‘Baek’hyun (baek=hundred) proudly showed to be the ‘genius idol’ and topped the voting for the special ‘100th’ WhosPICK poll.
Baekhyun’s ‘genius idol power’ has been verified since his elementary school days. When he was an elementary school student, he got the most votes in a survey titled ‘Who do you think will be the coolest at 25 years old?’ showing off his extraordinary popularity among his classmates even then.Baekhyun, who has been the center of attention since childhood, debuted as EXO, the representative group of K-Pop, and received the attention of people all around the world.
Baekhyun’s global popularity can be proved by just looking at the ‘Whosfan’ polls. In the first half of this year alone, including this ‘WhosPICK’ poll, he topped the votes for birthday ads and music ads as well, having ads broadcasted on landmarks domestically and overseas. In particular, he ranked 1st with 34.64% of the global votes in the men’s solo artist award category for the ‘2021 Hanteo Music Awards.’ The surprising thing is that all these votes took place during his hiatus for military service.
Tumblr media
▶ Beyond being the ‘PICK’ of global fans, he’s ‘the idol of idols!’
Baekhyun has over a hundred charms that captivate his global fans. Among them, one that stands out would be ‘fan training.’ For the 1st anniversary of the fan club, Baekhyun left comments such as “EXO-Ls, is it your first birthday tomorrow? What should I get for you? Tell dad everything,” and “What should dad do for you? My EXO-Ls is turning one tomorrow!” earning him the nickname of ‘dad.’
Baekhyun’s love for his fans stands out on his social media. Baekhyun even replies to fan posts that they left as a monologue, continuing on the conversation as he would to a friend. In particular, he left the comment ‘Are there any EXO-Ls or their parents who work at a restaurant?’ saying that he’d go visit the places where fans were working part-time and showing that he wrote down the restaurant names on his phone.
Tumblr media
His stage manners are also extraordinary. Baekhyun earned the nickname ‘genius idol’ by showing his mature stage manners on stage at the 2015 ‘MAMA’ awards ceremony. If you watch Baekhyun’s performance while he does his gestures that go perfectly with the song, you are sure to fall in love.
Baekhyun, who has been dubbed ‘fan alluring fairy’ with his cute appearance since his debut, is actually a prominent talent. Extracting refreshing high notes as the main vocalist of EXO, he also captivates the public’s ears with his emotional vocals as a solo artist, showing off his various charms. In addition to group promotions, Baekhyun has produced many solo hits such as ‘Bambi,’ ‘UN Village,’ and ‘Dream (Prod. by Park Geuntae)’ with numerous idols having covered his songs, proving his right to be called ‘the idol of idols’ and ‘1st tier leader.’
Whosfan will run a pop-up ad on the app for a week for EXO’s Baekhyun who placed 1st in this poll. Whosfan can be downloaded from the mobile App Store, Play Store, and Galaxy Store.
This week on ‘WhosPICK,’ which opens every Tuesday, is currently running with the topic, ‘Which idol has the squishiest cheeks?’ with idols who have cute cheeks as candidates. The fans are also paying a lot of attention to the ‘WhosPICK’ poll that runs from June 21st to June 27th.

September was a jam-packed month of slowly getting back to writing, attending events, studying, and volunteering again. But I'll start posting again here with the most recent event I've been to.
I am a UAENA. UAENA is the fandom name of South Korea's Little Sister, the most popular solo artist in the country, Lee Jieun, widely known as IU. South Korea has an IU song ready for each season, each emotion, and each situation. Her series, and now films, are everywhere. She sells out concerts in 3 minutes, sometimes 2. This year, IU celebrated her 15th debut anniversary. Throughout these years, she holds numerous firsts, including being the first solo female artist to sell out and perform at the Olympic Gymnastics Arena in South Korea. She is also the first solo female K-pop artist to have a concert film, which, to be honest, quite holds a short duration with the knowledge of how her concerts can go for 5-7 hours. IU is very popular for her en-en-encores, with fans singing with her all night.
Last September 28 and 30, IU: The Golden Hour became available globally. It is so rare to happen in the fandom. Her Golden Hour Concert is her legendary 14th Anniversary concert at the Olympic Gymnastics Arena. The film covers selected performances from the 2-day event, creating an immersive experience for the fans through the big screen.
A collaboration between IU Philippines, the official IU fanbase in the Philippines, and SM Cinema, UAENAs saw IU again and enjoyed a close to an actual concert experience. With fan kits, photo booths, and other events prepared, the fandom was excited for the 30th to come!
But here's where it gets more exciting. With the block screening happening concurrently in ten participating cinemas in the Philippines, IU Philippines scouted volunteers to help make the concert film experience more memorable. Eventually, I became a volunteer for the event and a new addition to IU Philippines' budding marketing team.
I have been a UAENA for 15 years. I grew up with IU. Honestly, I can't imagine life without IU, without K-pop. IU is the reason I got into K-pop. IU made me learn the Korean Language and love Korean Literature. Becoming a fan is a part of my youth that honed many aspects of my life, personal and career-wise. I know for how many years left I have in me, I'll keep loving her. And I know this doesn't only apply to me but to her fans around the globe, too. This holistic experience of experiencing inexplicable love to going full circle and supporting the community that equally adores an artist is what being a fan is.
There are so many things about this concert (film) that I wish I had seen in person. There are so many things about this experience that I want to tell you now, like the wedding proposal between two UAENAs that happened when the film ended or how we simultaneously cried whenever IU expressed her gratitude towards her fans. (Or how IU singlehandedly makes me tear up every time).
But I guess, as my fellow UAENAs said earlier, maybe it's the aura around UAENAs, the community, how we've grown up with IU, or how introverted her fans are. 🤣
Whatever it is, we'll keep our promise. We'll be here.
In this Tumblr post, I am exposing my most vulnerable persona - as a K-pop fan who grew up in this community and spent my youth with these idols that are rapidly taking over the international music scene. I am amazed how my September ended - with great people for such a great person.
Shine brightly, @dlwlrma 💜
항상 사랑하고 응원할게요 지은 언니. 💜💚

We look forward to the unforgettable memories that IU’s supporters and friends over the past 9 years - the fanclub ‘Uaena’, will create through this fanmeeting.”
